A simple machine able to move a400N load a distance of 20cm when a firce of 20N is move through a distance of 5m calculate

Aload of 400n is lifted by applying aforce of 20n on the lever if the load is 20cm from the folcrum and the effort is 600cm from the folcrum calculate

To calculate the work done by a machine, you can use the formula:
Work = Force x Distance
In this case, the force applied to the machine is 20N, and the distance it moves is 5m. We can calculate the work done by the machine as follows:
Work = 20N x 5m
= 100 Joules
So, the work done by the machine is 100 Joules.
Now, let's calculate the mechanical advantage of the machine. Mechanical advantage is defined as the ratio of the output force to the input force. In this case, the output force is 400N and the input force is 20N. We can calculate the mechanical advantage using the formula:
Mechanical Advantage = Output Force / Input Force
Mechanical Advantage = 400N / 20N
= 20
So, the mechanical advantage of the machine is 20.
Please note that in this case, the mechanical advantage is higher than the ideal value of 1, indicating that the machine is not efficient in terms of force amplification.
